Artwork

 

The Big One has been doing a lot of coloring, painting and other artwork now that we are doing slightly more structured learning. Here is one of Momma’s favorites – the Big One claimed it was a self portrait, so Momma had him identify all his body parts.

 

The best part? It reminds Momma of an angel.

Preschool – Weeks 4-5

So this time, we were delayed by a vacation to Florida. Regardless, we are working on:

 

 

 

Letter R!

We started with some practice, which turned out surprisingly well. The big one has difficulty with anything that is not a straight line. He progressed onto:

 

 

 

Some of which were superb, and others not so much.

Along with “R” we talked about Rainbows, and with it, color mixing. Momma had planned to make a rainforest lesson, including a rain stick, but it never happened. Best laid plans and such.

 

 

Here, the Big One is learning that Blue and Yellow make Green. We did the same thing for Blue and Red, Red and Yellow, and all three together.

Egg Dyeing – Easter Part II

This was the Big One’s first year dyeing Easter eggs. Momma thought that the traditional style egg dyeing might be a little boring – all that waiting for colors, and it’s hard to do anything cool. So Momma put food dye into muffin tins so that it was easy to switch eggs around and make interesting layers. 

  Corbin seemed to enjoy watching the process.

The eggs turned out fantastic. Not entirely sure where the horizontal lines came from, but those aside, the eggs are gorgeous. Momma might be biased…
